Video Game Characters, the one's that speak, usually have very distinct voices. Most people can easily identify the gruff voice of Marcus Fenix, the sexy-tenor tones of Nathan Drake, and the nearly-musical voice of Cortana by sound alone. However, most people could not name the actors who voice them. So I have made a nice list of popular video game voice actors, the game they are most known for, and other works the actor has done.

Actor: Nolan North

Most Known For: Nathan Drake (Uncharted Series)

Nolan North's most recognizable role is the loveable Nathan Drake from the Uncharted series. What you may not know about Nolan North, is that he has been in almost every modern video game since the release of Uncharted 2. This man is the hardest working (by quantity of significant roles) voice actor in the video games industry.

Other Characters they play:

The Penguin (Arkham City), Desmond (Assassin's Creed), Raphael (TMNT Movie), Turret Voices (Portal), Will (Dark Void), Romeo (ODST), Jason (Shadow Complex), The Prince (Prince of Persia), As well as many minor character voices in almost every AAA game, from Infamous to Rage.

Actor: John DiMaggio

Most Known For : Marcus Fenix (Gears of War Series)/ Bender (Futurama)

John DiMaggio runs the gambit for voice acting with his gruff and edgy voice. Almost all of his movies, games, and shows are series that would appeal to the IGN audience.

Most Known For: The Joker (Batman: Animated series and "Arkham" games)

Oh, and he was this guy:

As Mark Hammill quickly discovered, it is hard to avoid being typecast when you've stared in one of the greatest movies of all time. Therefore, Mark decided that the best way to avoid being typecast, was to avoid showing his face at all. His most famous voice role is The Joker in Batman: The Animated Series.

Other Characters they play:

Hobgoblin (Spiderman TV Series), Luke Skywalker (Robot Chicken, Family Guy, Simpsons). Pretty much just The Joker and Luke Skywalker, but those are two really big ones.

Actress: Jennifer Hale

Most Known For: Female Commander Shepard (Mass Effect)

Jennifer Hale has been a major female voice for video game charecters throughout her life time. Fem. Shep. is only her most recognizable due to the sheer amount of dialogue in the Mass Effect games.

Other Characters they play:

Naomi Hunter (Metal Gear), Samus (Metroid Prime), Bastilla (KOTOR)

Actress: Jen Taylor

Most Known For: Cortona (Halo)

A relatively young voice actress, Jen Taylor is still extremely recognizable as Cortana from the Halo series.
